I gave Joe an opportunity to clarify: | Quote | Okay, let me tell you the story of two friends.
My first friend sleepwalks. But it's a strange form of sleepwalking. Every night, she gets up, goes downstairs to the kitchen table, grabs a sheet of paper and starts writing. Nothing but strings of 1s and 0s. She fills up a single page with these numbers, then leaves it there and goes upstairs and back to sleep. She never remembers doing any of this in the morning.
My second friend is in an institution. (I know, I know.) He had a traumatic brain injury and all his higher functions seem to be gone. He has ceased talking or communicating with anybody at all. Nobody knows how much of a person is left. He eats and shits and sleeps, but that's about all.
Except that he spends all day, every day, filling sheet after sheet of paper with 1s and 0s. Isn't that amazing? Sometimes he'll go on just writing 0s -- hundreds in a row -- sometimes he'll alternate 10101010, and sometimes the sequence will seem random. But still, he's utterly catatonic and shows no signs of intelligence whatsoever.
My question is: is the writing on all of those sheets designed? Is only some? And if so, how do you know which is designed and which not? |
Joe passes:
| Quote | Not interested.
What I am interested in is YOU actually finding and posting the scientific data which supports your position that living organisms arose from non-living matter via non-telic processes.
Heck I would even settle for the scientific data which can account for the physiological and anatomical differences observed between chimps and humans and then tie that to genetic accidents (ie couple the genetic differences to the physiological and anatomical differences).
We know there are differences in the protein-coding reions, yet those prtein products all function the same- that is they perform the same task. So those genetic differences can't explain the physiological and anatomical differences unless you call upon some magical mystery process, that nature cobbled together, that allows for similar protein function yet very different body plans.
But anyways- for sleep walkers I would put stuff all around their bed, perhaps even some tacks- yeah, that's the ticket- and when they did their sleepwalking thing they would stumble over the obstacles and impale themselves with tacks. |
Sweet guy, that Joe.
